The sham called election in this country has made Nigeria a laughing stock to the entire world. Light will surely prevail over darkness.

Unfortunately our constitution seems not to disqualify people with dual citizenship, where the person is a Nigerian by birth. As a matter of fact, it was because of that lacuna that Hamzat was emboldened to make that disclosure of dual citizenship prior to the election.
Let the court determine it then. Na criminal s dey rule you and you are happy.

I would think not declaring your dual citizenship when filling your forms is what can nail you , not actually holding dual citizenship .
The so called US immigration lawyer said the incumbent deputy governor RENOUNCED his Nigerian citizenship but can not reveal the evidence that proves such allegations because such info is protected by the US private policy act ! Such a waste of everyone's time that turned out to be then , Way to go labour party once again .

If Obi had won, If Chinedu had won, it would not have been a sham election.

Thank you sir, the non-ignorant one. The court will soon make a pronouncement and I will remind you of this post. Some of you are so uncouth, lousy and uncultured that it is not too difficult to envisage the kind of lives you live.

Many of our political office holders have dual nationality. The laws of the land allows it.

If the constitution says otherwise who are my to misconstrue it. I simply discussed what I found out about the position of our constitution. If the lawmakers amend it, then I have no problem with. We should look at these things without emotions.

Really wow,how would that affect sanwo olu pls.
In Nigerian legal system, presidential and gubernatorial seats are twin seats such that whatever affects the main candidate also affects the running mate and vice versa.
A typical case is that of the 2019 Bayelsa gubernatorial election where David Lyon, the winner of the election was stopped from being sworn in because his deputy was disqualified for submitting a fake certificate

If the deputy governor already has American citizenship and even declared it, then why did he vie for election knowing fully well that it is against the Nigerian constitution.
This cannot survive in court oo. Sanwo Olu is gone be that

Nigeria constitution allows for dual citizenship

The constitution is clear on matters of dual citizenship. Such persons cannot vie for such high political offices. It is a ground for disqualification. It cannot survive the rigours of the courts.
I hope the judiciary will be bold enough to do the needful

You lie.

He is a Nigerian by birth and not naturalisation. He has right to be elected since he is a Nigerian by birth. You cant deny him this right. That is the position of the constitution

Why is it that witnesses called upon by Labour Party always leave loopholes in their research,that was how the one defending OBi also said,she didn't know the case he was referring has been dissolved by an American Court.Now here's another witness saying she didn't know the aftermath of the supposed allegation,she came to sell in the court..
Na wa o


All that you called loopholes are not. It's an avenue for the respondent to come and defend. The respondent must come and explain. Those LP witnesses are very smart.

you are the quake here, check supreme court judgement between Bassey Otu (current governor of cross River state) Vs PDP before the election, according to supreme court once you are born in Nigeria you are a citizen not withstanding if you take citizen of another country as far as you did not renounce your Nigeria citizen, you are qualified for election, Gbadebo and his lawyers are too full to bring this to tribunal it wouldn't stand
